    All these towns have rivers or creeks that border them where flood concerns are really uncommon. They're totally unprepared for things like this.

    How’s your area? You’re more on the East part of the state aren’t you?

    I'm just fine. I have a bunch of family in that flash flood warning from the ice jam route, though. Not great.

    I got a video from a relative yesterday where their pasture looked like a literal river. It's normally dry and they grow alfalfa and graze cattle in there.

    For people unfamiliar the Platte is where almost all the other major tributaries in the state dump together before they go into the Missouri river 30ish miles downstream from that video.

    My parents were just evacuated at 4:30 this morning in Platte County, just southwest of Columbus. They live on a lake development. The development is built up pretty significantly so that if it does flood, water will spill around it into pastureland. However, once the pastureland fills up...

    This picture is looking to the west and was about 2-3 hours ago. Typically that’s open pastureland.

    Apparently they are anticipating 4-5 foot river surges in Fremont so they’re also evacuating.

    This is my hometown. It borders 2 creeks that are essentially 10-15 feet wide at the wide spots (literally a creek, not even close to approaching a small river). This drains into normal rivers, those normal rivers drain into the Platte River (a big one) that drains into the Missouri River.
